resolution	A character vector giving the spatial resolution of the data: "4km" or "9km"
date	A character vector of the month ("YYYY-MM")
xmin	A numeric vector of the lower longitude of the spatial area
xmax	A numeric vector of the max longitude of the spatial area
ymin	A numeric vector of the lower latitude of the spatial area
ymax	A numeric vector of the max latitude of the spatial area

Value

A rasterlayer object of the map of the variable for the given month

Examples

## Not run: 
	#extraction of the MODIS chlorophyll a concentration for Septembre 2009 in the vicinity of the Bird Island area (South Africa)
